    • normalAbsoluteAngle

      public static double normalAbsoluteAngle(double angle)
      Normalizes an angle to an absolute angle. The normalized angle will be in the range from 0 to 2*PI, where 2*PI itself is not included.
      Parameters:
      angle - the angle to normalize
      Returns:
      the normalized angle that will be in the range of [0,2*PI[
    • normalAbsoluteAngleDegrees

      public static double normalAbsoluteAngleDegrees(double angle)
      Normalizes an angle to an absolute angle. The normalized angle will be in the range from 0 to 360, where 360 itself is not included.
      Parameters:
      angle - the angle to normalize
      Returns:
      the normalized angle that will be in the range of [0,360[
    • normalRelativeAngle

      public static double normalRelativeAngle(double angle)
      Normalizes an angle to a relative angle. The normalized angle will be in the range from -PI to PI, where PI itself is not included.
      Parameters:
      angle - the angle to normalize
      Returns:
      the normalized angle that will be in the range of [-PI,PI[
    • normalRelativeAngleDegrees

      public static double normalRelativeAngleDegrees(double angle)
      Normalizes an angle to a relative angle. The normalized angle will be in the range from -180 to 180, where 180 itself is not included.
      Parameters:
      angle - the angle to normalize
      Returns:
      the normalized angle that will be in the range of [-180,180[
    • normalNearAbsoluteAngleDegrees

      public static double normalNearAbsoluteAngleDegrees(double angle)
      Normalizes an angle to be near an absolute angle. The normalized angle will be in the range from 0 to 360, where 360 itself is not included. If the normalized angle is near to 0, 90, 180, 270 or 360, that angle will be returned. The isNear method is used for defining when the angle is near one of angles listed above.
      Parameters:
      angle - the angle to normalize
      Returns:
      the normalized angle that will be in the range of [0,360[

    • normalNearAbsoluteAngle

      public static double normalNearAbsoluteAngle(double angle)
      Normalizes an angle to be near an absolute angle. The normalized angle will be in the range from 0 to 2*PI, where 2*PI itself is not included. If the normalized angle is near to 0, PI/2, PI, 3*PI/2 or 2*PI, that angle will be returned. The isNear method is used for defining when the angle is near one of angles listed above.
      Parameters:
      angle - the angle to normalize
      Returns:
      the normalized angle that will be in the range of [0,2*PI[

    • isNear

      public static boolean isNear(double value1, double value2)
      Tests if the two double values are near to each other. It is recommended to use this method instead of testing if the two doubles are equal using an this expression: value1 == value2. The reason being, that this expression might never become true due to the precision of double values. Whether or not the specified doubles are near to each other is defined by the following expression: (Math.abs(value1 - value2) < .00001)
      Parameters:
      value1 - the first double value
      value2 - the second double value
      Returns:
      true if the two doubles are near to each other; false otherwise.
    • getRandom

      public static Random getRandom()
      Returns random number generator. It might be configured for repeatable behavior by setting -DRANDOMSEED option.
      Returns:
      random number generator
